Under normal circumstances that would merely be an annoying
inconvenience, but since the filesystem is supposed to be automounted I
don't see how I should do that. How do people normally do this? A lot
of people use extensive partitioning and mount the partitions
automatically (from /etc/fstab). Does everyone chmod the permissions
afterwards? Is it unreasonable to want an extra filesystem automounted
owned by root:disk, so certain users can access it? ("Certain users" in
this case merely means me, as this is for my home system, but I don't
want to have to be root all the time in order to access the partition.)
TIA,
Gertjan.
